Dedicated handheld Games List

[ View Trivia ] [ View all Platforms ]

The Dedicated handheld platform documents all games released as a standalone device that's held in the player's hands while they play the game. This means the game does not support the use of discs, cartridges, downloading or other media to be expanded with more games. Instead it plays just the game or games it's pre-programmed (or engineered) to play. Dedicated handheld devices are well suited to play while traveling because they are compact and do not rely on external peripherals. They are typically battery-powered.

The Dedicated handheld platform is closely related to the Dedicated console platform. The biggest difference is that this platform is meant to be held while playing. The Dedicated handheld platform does not include so-called tabletop games which are standalone but too big to hold while playing.
